The app
the deck, in your pocket
The cards stay on the table. That is where they work. The app is for the moments the box is not with you, and for the few things paper cannot do.
It is being built now. Here is what it will do.
Eight things paper cannot do
- 01
Point your camera at a card
The app recognises it and opens its page from the guidebook. The booklet can stay in the box.
- 02
Your patterns, over time
Log each draw and a line on what came up. After a few months you see which of the eight traps is yours.
- 03
Say where you are stuck
Type or speak it. The app names the pattern and you draw from that stack only. It never answers, it only chooses which stack the question comes from.
- 04
Draw one for someone else
Send a card to a friend who is stuck. They get the question, not advice.
- 05
Every question in Dutch
The printed deck is English. The app carries both.
- 06
One question on your home screen
A widget with the card of the week. No need to open anything.
- 07
The cards that do not exist yet
Ideas sent in at thethinkingdeck.com/ideas appear here first as digital cards. You vote. The favourites get printed in the next deck.
- 08
Room for the next deck
Built to hold more than one deck, so what comes after this one lives in the same place.
And one thing it will never do
no streaks, no badges, no answers.
The card asks. The app does not motivate you, does not compare you to anyone, and does not tell you what to do. Everything you write stays on your phone. No account.
Where it will be
Free to try, with one card from each of the eight patterns. Every deck comes with a key that unlocks all fifty-two. The deck ships late January 2027. The app follows it.
